I talked to a bunch of supply chain experts about Trump's tariffs & gadget prices. Bad news: $$$$$$ Less bad news: This won't happen right away due to existing inventory. AKA now is the rare time where it doesn't pay to wait to replace aging tech https://t.co/SGrbyoGyuE
Also Garmin announced Connect Plus — a premium tier to its app that adds AI and a few other features. Existing features & data will remain free, but curious to hear from Garmin loyalists how they feel about this. https://t.co/rNKy0wTBH5
